New Zealand excess deaths according to the OECD.

Apr 22, 2023 | Covid, Data

The graphs I’ve just produced using data download from the official OECD website here and as you can see they’re still way up 30.1% above average. It was reported last week excess deaths in the UK are still up 21% in the UK- https://stats.oecd.org/index.aspx?queryid=104676

Apparently, from unconfirmed sources within New Zealand

The number of heart attacks has doubled. Hospitalisation for myocarditis is up by one-third (33% increase). Miscarriage, stillbirths, and strokes are all up by a quarter (25% increase).

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is up by 40%.

If this is being repeated across the nation (a reasonable assumption), in the year April 2022 to March 2023 alone there will have been

14,600 additional hospitalisations for heart attacks,

9,700 additional cases of myocarditis,

8,200 additional cases of kidney injury,

1,600 additional miscarriages,

1,800 additional stillbirths and

10,500 additional strokes.”
